They have no point guard. Their fans frustrated with Neptune’s greenness and want to starr Angelo Brizzi at the point and let him go through the growing pains. Turns out converting combo guards into pgs doesnt always work

So Colorado lost to Grambling, so it only makes sense that Colorado is up 55-48 on Tennessee with 9 minutes left.

Man I love college basketball.

We play a well coached team tomorrow. Dont look talented but annoyingly well coached

It’s still Ben Jacobson, right? He’s been there a while.

Yep it’s Jacobson. Nine 20+ win seasons in his 16 years there. He did a really nice job continuing the momentum that Greg McDermott gave them and turned UNI into a solid mid major.

Has Jacobson worked on his teams inbounding? I still get PTSD thinking about that

I think each time won a game in the big tourney as well. You never wanna play someone with Iowa in their name. Unless it is the actual Iowa

Interesting because I was kind of daydreaming with having Gertrude as a point guard as he already has the handle I just hope he can continue to develop his shot.

That two game stretch was wild.

The buzzer beater to beat Texas (Shout out Paul Jesperson). And then the epic collapse vs Texas A&M in the round of 32

Also had this thought watching the Tennessee game: Is Ryan Dunn better than Julian Phillips? I feel like the only sane and rational answer is ā€œYes, by a mileā€.

More seriously, yeah it’s monmouth (again we DOUBLED the 25 pt vegas spread) but just eye test wise Julian Phillips doesn’t do much/his effort isn’t like Dunn’s. No caffeine in his pregame shakes probably.

What’s actually in Dunn’s sideline Gatorade cup:

The preseason scrimmage hype on Phillips was really positive. Maybe he was just off today

That’s crazy … Colorados bench outscored it’s starters 52-26 and Tennessee bench outscored it’s starters as well

Wow. GT beat Georgia State yesterday by 2.

I’d thought the ACC might be less bad than last year but apparently not.

Edit - JMU now ranked higher by KenPom than FSU, Louisville, Pitt and GT.
